Jenkins - Integrating JIRA with Jenkins, for creating ticket automatically when build fails, in Jenkins

I am using Jenkins to run jobs and want to create/update tickets in JIRA, whenever build fails. I have downloaded JIRA plugin, Jira Issue Updater, JiraTestResultReporter plugins and configured URL and credentials, under Manage Jenkins/Configure System.

In the job am running, under Post-build Actions, I added 'Create Jira Issue' with project key, assignee name etc and 'Jira Test Result Reporter' with all required credentials.

I get the following error in the console:

ERROR: Publisher 'Jira Test Result Reporter' aborted due to exception: 
java.lang.NoSuchMethodError: hudson.model.AbstractBuild.getTestResultAction()Lhudson/tasks/test/AbstractTestResultAction;
at JiraTestResultReporter.JiraReporter.perform(JiraReporter.java:105)

at hudson.model.ResourceController.execute(ResourceController.java:98)
at hudson.model.Executor.run(Executor.java:374)
Finished: FAILURE

Any idea whats going wrong? Is it not able to find the project? I have access to create ticket in the project specified, in jira.

It is generally possible to create tickets in JIRA programmatically, for example via their REST API.

Regarding your error, this behavior was introduced when the method signature of getTestResultAction() changed to return an Action instead of an AbstractTestResultAction. The effect on the JiraTestResultReporter plugin is a known issue and is tracked at JENKINS-25140. The error was fixed in the source of the plugin a while ago, but is still pending a release.

Solution: As a workaround, Daniel Beck suggests to build and install a snapshot of the current JiraTestResultReporter plugin which seems to solve this particular error (see comments to the Jenkins ticket mentioned above).
